Mathematics - Calculus - Differential - Introduction to derivatives - Speedometer at an Instant

Show a car's position graph (position vs time curve). The student picks two points and draws a SECANT line (average speed between them). Then they drag the second point closer and closer to the first. The secant line rotates and approaches the TANGENT line. Display: 'Average speed from t=2 to t=5: 3
